Pet Passport Barbados
REGULATIONS FOR TAKING A PET DOG OR CAT TO BARBADOS
Barbados requires an Import Permit obtained from the Chief Veterinary
Officer before the importation of all cats, dogs, other warm blooded animals, reptiles and birds.
Your pet must have a 15 digit ISO pet microchip
and vaccinated for rabies and various other diseases and have a Blood Titer Test 6 months prior to travel.
If your pet' microchip is not ISO 11784/11785 compliant, you can bring your own
microchip scanner.
If traveling from one of the Third Countries
such as the United States or Canada, the dog or cat must have been a resident of that
country for a minimum of six months. It must have a blood titre test
and follow the procedure to enter the United Kingdom. The pet can then travel
directly from the UK to Barbados.
A USDA (or CFIA) accredited veterinarian must complete the
Barbados Veterinary Certificate for endorsement by the USDA or CFIA if traveling from the
United States or Canada. A copy of the Rabies Certificate should
also be included. This completes your cat or dog passport to Barbados.
A Veterinary Officer must examine the animal before it is allowed
to leave the customs area.
You must make prior arrangements for the Country Veterinarian to
meet your pet on arrival for inspection, there is a fee for
the inspection.
Failure to comply with these regulations will mean that your pet may
be refused entry and the relevant authority in consultation
with an authorized veterinarian can decide to return the pet home, or place
your cat or dog in quarantine at the expense of the owner or natural person responsible for the pet, or as a last resort, without financial
compensation, put the pet down where the return trip home or
quarantine cannot be arranged.
All other pets (birds, invertebrates, tropical fish, reptiles,
amphibia, mammals such as rodents and rabbits) are not subject to
the regulations in respect of the anti-rabies vaccination but may
have to meet other requirements as to a limit on the number of
animals and a certificate to accompany them in respect of other
diseases. Pet owners are strongly advised to seek further information
from the relevant authority of their country and/or that of the
country of destination.
